I have a laptop and I bought a 60 gig external harddrive with USB2 and firewire connection. I made a clone of my 40 gig inside harddrive. My question is, how can I get windows XP to not automatically load new software unto the internal harddrive but instead give me the option to load it to the hardrive of my choice?

open regedit, then go to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

In the other pane you can now change the value of ProgramFilesDir to the Drive and directory you want.
